Have you booked your Labor Day Weekend car rental yet? For many Americans, this holiday weekend is the last hurrah of summer. Labor Day weekend is one of the top travel weekends of the year and the AAA is predicting a busy holiday period. That means if you’re thinking of renting a car, you should reserve now, as some locations might run out of cars.
Ask AutoSlash for a Quote on a Cheap Car Rental
Unsurprisingly, some of the most popular U.S. destinations for the the long holiday weekend are the nation’s top beach and mountain destinations, where travelers want to eke out the last drops of summer.
How to Snag a Cheap Rental Car for Labor Day Weekend
Book early.
The best time to book your rental car is as soon as you start thinking of going away. Unlike airline tickets, rental car reservations can usually be canceled without a penalty. A smart strategy is to ask AutoSlash for a quote early on, and then watch to see if prices go down.
Track your reservation.
It’s an epic chore to constantly check for lower rates but, AutoSlash will do this for you at no extra cost. After you book your car, ask AutoSlash to track your reservation. We’ll let you know if there’s a price drop so you can rebook at the lower rate.
Make the most of a weekend rate.
Car rental companies can offer very attractive weekend promo rates—but there are often some strings attached. Knowing a little about rental car logic will help you get the most bang for your buck out of a weekend rental.
Let AutoSlash Track Your Car Rental for Price Drops
Check both on and off airport.
Flying into an airport rental might be convenient, but it might also be pricey. A short Uber or Lyft ride to a nearby neighborhood rental location could cut your rate in half. But off-airport rates aren’t always cheaper, so it always pays to check both.
